Abstract: Raising confidence in climate projections: The past to future approach As Europe solidifies its climate policies for 2040 and 2050, the Past to Future (P2F) project seeks to validate climate models against a broader spectrum of past climate conditions. Learn why this approach is crucial for informing long-term infrastructure, land use, and financial planning. Europe’s climate policy has entered a decisive decade. As targets for 2040 and 2050 harden into legislation, governments are consulting climate models to guide choices with multi- decade consequences. The question now is whether those models are robust enough for high-stakes law, infrastructure, and financial oversight.
